Pet care experience

Belly scratches & hikes since 2002

I am very much an animal lover, beginning with my first dog. He was the sweetest Samoyed mix. Since then, I’ve owned a multitude of dogs including a Boxer, Boston Terrier, and now a Pit Bull mix. I have a fenced in yard and go for walks on weekdays and hikes on weekends. Dogs will happily tear around a fenced in yard along with my Pit Bull, who considers herself a socialite. I’m just a doorman for these four-legged creatures.

It was so nice to leave Arlo in a loving and caring environment. Sarissa was great with communicating throughout the time!

Everything was easy and smooth, and Sarissa was accommodating when I needed to find a last-minute sitter. There were several dogs and a big fenced yard, so my dog came back very happy and tired.

Sarissa was amazing- my daughter was getting married close by and we had never left Mable before! Sarissa was terrific - we were slightly delayed in the morning because of the family send off- she made it so comfortable for us all! ?❤️

My dog Huckleberry had a great stay with Sarissa. I appreciated knowing that he had plenty of room to romp and play in Sarissa's beautiful fenced-in yard. I received pictures of Huck during his stay and loved knowing that he was being taken for hikes and given plenty of snuggles.

Sarissa was so wonderful with our dog, and so communicative about how he was doing during his stay. We really appreciated her care and love for him -- our pup can be a bit anxious in new places and he settled in with her so nicely. Thank you so much Sarissa!

Schedule

My job has a flexible schedule so the most I'm usually gone is about six hours, so I selected 4-8 hours just to be safe. Dogs will be able to come in and out of the house as they wish while I’m home through the doggy door or manually (by me 🙂).

Safety, trust & environment

I’m consistently providing animal care to friends at home, and would love to do the same here. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and hikes, and love watching them play in the yard.

Dogs will have free range of the yard and house everyday while I’m home. I’m happy to give them comfort by following their typical routine. Let me know what your dog needs, and I will happily oblige.

Feel free to tell me everything you feel necessary. I’ve given pet sitters a 3-page document before so I won’t judge! I want your fur kid(s) to feel comfortable when I’m caring for them.
